lyrics

I'm staring at the letterbox at the end of the road
My hands are wrapped around the envelope; they won't let go, though
'Cause now I'm here I just don't know

The night was darkest before the dawn
But dawn came and dark clouds formed
The fires of this empire were fuelled by fear and apathy
It played out like some outrageous story you'd just never believe

Running on empty with a blown out tyre
Get the windows down and turn the radio higher
It's so loud I can't hear myself think
This pressure's keeping me on the brink
If everything is a rich man's trick I think we're rather content in being fooled
'Cause no one really cares as long as their washing's done and their pork is pulled

Well, this old house, sometimes it creaks
But don't you worry, just go to sleep
Just you leave it all to me
Let me take care of it

This old house, sometimes it creaks
You can leave it all to me

So wake up in the sun and don't be late to the place where every cake is laid to perspirate, hey
'Cause it's another day
